SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 252,090, dated January 1o, 1862.

Application tiled May 25, 1881. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HARVEY FERGUSON, of Leetsville, Kalkaska county, Michigan, have invented an Improvement in SaW-Jointers, of which the following is a specifica-tion.

The nature of this invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in the constructiony of devices to be used in the pointing of crosseut-saw teeth 5 and the invention conf sists in the peculiar construction, arrangement, and combination of the various parts, all as more fully hereinafter set forth.`

In the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, and in which my invention is shown in perspective in Figure 1 and in plan in Fig. 2, A represents a suitable plate provided with a flange, a, upon one edge. To this flange are secured one end of the springs B, the opposite ends of which press upon the side of the plate. A rectangular opening, b, is formed in the plate A. Within this opening thereis arranged the slide G,which is operated by the thumb-screws D, passing through the body of the plate A. This plate C is provided with a ange, o, similar to the flange a, and through such llange o is formed a slot, cl, leaving the projection e upon the body of the slide.

In operation this device, when intended for readily filed off in a similar manner.

By the use of this device I am enabled to quickly and easily joint the teeth and rakers ot' a crosseut saw, gaging their lengths as may be desired.

What I claim as my invention is- In a saw-jointer, and in combination with a plate, A, thereof, provided with a flange, a., and springs B, the adjustable slide provided with a slotted flange, b, and a thumbscrew, D, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
